1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Thiopurines, such as 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), are widely used as cytotoxic agents and immunosuppressants for leukemia and autoimmune or inflammatory diseases. A nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (p.Arg139Cys; R139C) of the nucleoside diphosphate-linked moiety X-type motif 15 (NUDT15) gene causes the loss of thiopurine detoxification, inducing myelosuppression. To understand such hematotoxicity, we investigate the effects of NUDT15 R139C on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) upon thiopurine administration. Using previously established Nudt15
